How Can Abdominal Bloating And Diverticulitis Be Treated?
iI had a serious episode of diverticulitis last summer. It was treated with antibiotics and went away. It seems to be back, but not as severe. My doctor put me on antibiotics again and it helped but I still have a lot of gas and bloating. What can I do? Is it possible this will go away on its own?
Hello. You need to follow certain tips to combat bloating abdomen and gastritis.
1. Do not eat spicy food 2. Take medications for gastritis- pantop/omez/rantac 3. Take little food at frequent intervals. Breakfast around 8am, small snack at 11am, lunch at 1pm, small snack at 4pm and dinner at 8pm 4. Drink plenty of water 5. Do not smoke, take alcohol or tobacco and even excess of coffee and tea 6. Do not take much of stress. Stress aggravates gastritis 7. Do regular exercise. Atleast half an hour per day 8. Learn meditation techniques 9. Follow this regularly for 21 days. It is said that anything you practice regularly for 21 days becomes a habit
